Doesn't make sense to me why OpenAI has kept DALL-E closed source for so long. I can only guess either safety from misuse or leveraging it for money. At this rate though, Stable Diffusion is going to dwarf it

> I can only guess either safety from misuse I still don't understand what this would mean. Where are all of the terrible things that were supposed to happen, now that Stable Diffusion is available? We've been able to create completely photorealistic fiction for decades now. See any movie with CGI for an example of whole worlds, and people, that don't exist. The bar has gradually been lowering (see the amazing CGI th…

CGI sucks. Monty python had the best special effects.

Do you know the best Google Colab tutorial / repo?

Hi, there are a couple of good UIs. https://github.com/cmdr2/stable-diffusion-ui is an easy-to-install and use tool, written by me (with contributions by many). Version 2 is in beta, which is a 1-click installer for Windows, no dependencies or command line needed. v2 beta: https://github.com/cmdr2/stable-diffusion-ui/tree/v2 https://github.com/hlky/stable-diffusion is another popular and good tool.

Awesome, thanks a lot!

I've heard this a lot, luckily it's not that hard to test if you can really tell the difference. We need someone to create the 'AI Pepsi challenge' for artists to settle this.

That was fast, looks like artists can't tell, AI wins first prize in an art competition! https://www.vice.com/en/article/bvmvqm/an-ai-generated-artwo...

That was the State Fair fine arts competition.. I wouldn't exactly say you're about to fool the MOMA

Here is a SD plugin for Krita: https://www.reddit.com/r/StableDiffusion/comments/x209sb/pre...

Which now supports inpainting (as of 36 minutes ago): https://www.reddit.com/r/StableDiffusion/comments/x2tk1g/sta...

These examples aren't very convincing. It seems like Stable Diffusion's inpainting has a bit of catching up to do.

Someone else will come along that doesn't have the same arbitrary limitations, it's a battle you're bound to lose.

Agreed. Unfortunately, it's just a matter of time before someone develops a similar open source project that someone uses for unsavory purposes.

A problem is that training huge model costs $$. https://twitter.com/EMostaque/status/1563870674111832066

I wonder is it possible to distribute the task for volunteer's idle GPU (like BOINC)

Stable Diffusion is arguably better, has more features, and is free. OpenAI can't compete with free. Even if you don't want to take the 30 seconds to set it up in a free Google Colab environment, the paid DreamStudio version is still half the price of Dalle.

Running this at home is only free like mining cryptocurrency is free if you didn't buy your computer and don't pay for the electricity. Plus you can only run it on the computer that has the good graphics card, which probably isn't your laptop. I expect most people aren't going to be generating images all day, so using a cloud-based service for occasional use will still make a lot of sense. Stable Diffusion offers a p…

Now many people have gaming PC for gaming, so they can use virtually free GPU to generate images if VRAM is enough.

Also, unlike DALL-E, SD comes without a content filter and "anti-bias diversity" filter so it gives you what you ask and treats you as an adult.

There's still a NSFW filter (at least, in the version I used). I'm sure it's easy enough to disable if you poke around but it's not exposed as a function parameter out-of-the-box.

I didn't investigate any further because I'm not actively trying to generate porn. It was pretty annoying to have my results blanked out because they were (apparently) NSFW - so either the filter was triggering a lot of false positives or the model was generating NSFW content for non-NSFW prompts.

After removing the NSFW filter, I can confirm that 99% of the blocked results are not in-fact NSFW. The filter is VERY over aggressive.

To remove the filter, you just have to comment out the two lines of code which call it. Instructions are here: https://reddit.com/r/StableDiffusion/comments/wv2nw0/tutoria...

If you checked out the Photoshop extension inpainting that also used Stable Diffusion. I figured this Krita extension was just using a lower quality setting or something, since the Stable Diffusion Photoshop results looked much better. Maybe it could come down to the amount of VRAM in the machine the demos were recorded on, or something.

what kind of prompting is required for this? I uploaded a digital painting, selected "Edit mode", added a generation frame and prompted "complete the painting in frame" ...but it just added a completed unrelated photo related to painting in that frame.

I guess prompting that is "similar" to the image. The output mine gave was pretty lackluster. I had to overlap the image significantly, and even then it didn't seem to take into account enough of the context to make something that resembled the style close enough.

Yeah, you have to first describe what the image is supposed to be and then it picks it up from there. Got some good results with digital art.
